On the way home I could see intense strobe reflections on bits of my bike and signs etc coming from someone I thought was right behind me. After a (short) while this got on my tits and thought to myself, “Why the fuck don’t they just get the fuck past me”.
After a while I looked round and they were about 200m back, searingly bright even at that distance and that’s with street and shop lights around.

Sounds about right. Just baffles me how these people are so unaware about it.

This is thing that I am most pissed off about by miles EVERY SINGLE DAY. I really need to not give a shit.

Dont get me started on lights.
As Im here...Default setting is anti aircraft. Oo LEDs are super bright so we have to install brighter lights than the street lights!
Such brilliant logic....
You can see through skin in the most basic car now.
My grandparents wont drive if lights are needed.
Its so dumb, you cant judge speed, size, direction or make out any 'no you go' gestures from the driver which leads to weird politbess chicken mexican stand offs.
Dumb af. Ive thought this for years. National petition? Doesnt france still have yellow filters?

Other cyclists with insane flashing lights and delivery workers on e-bike conversions riding like maniacs are probably my main pet peeve when commuting tbh.
And yeah, temporary lights, especially at roundabouts, often seem v dangerous and badly timed. Twice at the same roundabout here I’ve almost had my car written off because of people flying through. Would be suicide to try and cycle it tbh.
